Chapter six hundred and sixty-eight temptation

When the orcs entered the manor gate, Waddington turned and left, and calm returned outside the Leng Jade Gate.

However, most of the young people's faces were not good-looking, and they were all filled with indignation. After all, the orc before could be said to have provoked everyone.

And Lachi was also cursing quietly beside Gervais.

"How disgusting, these bastard orcs!"

"Let's go in first!"

Gervais shook his head slightly, saying that it would be useless to curse him now if he was not as powerful as he was.

Those half-orcs were running rampant at the entrance of Leng Jade Manor. It was obvious that they were deliberately looking for trouble. They probably also wanted to test the strength of the human youth.

"Okay, let's go in first."

After hearing Gervais's words, Lucky put aside his previous unhappiness, dismounted with Gervais and headed towards the gate of the manor.

When the two of them arrived at the gate, they directly displayed the invitation in front of the attendant without waiting for him to ask.

The attendant immediately bowed respectfully to the two of them, and another person ran over and took Lucky's horse and sent it to be stored.

Gervase's nightmare was sent back to the dark world after dismounting, so there was nothing to store.

Then the two of them were led into the gate of Leng Jade Manor by the attendants, and just like last time, they directly got on the carriage provided by Leng Jade Manor.

As the carriage moved forward, four or five minutes later, a splendid building appeared in front of Gervais and the others.

At this time, the squares, gardens, and lawns around the building were already bustling with people, and from time to time the sounds of young men and women talking or laughing could be heard along with the melodious music.

There were so many people coming to attend Adela's birthday that the outside of the building became a banquet venue.

Of course, the people outside are all young men and women, because those in the main hall of the building are basically the lords of the various holy cities or their heirs. In short, they are the principals attending the banquet.

On the outside, these are the second sons like Lachi or other nephews.

In this age without entertainment, cocktail parties and banquets are the favorite occasions for the upper class, regardless of men, women, old or young.

Therefore, many of the guests who can come will basically bring a few more children to let them gain experience and make connections.

"Come on, Harry, let's go inside!"

After getting off the carriage, Lucky looked at the crowd in the square without stopping, and proudly greeted Gervais towards the building gate.

Although Lachi is the second son, he and Gervais are all friends of Adela. He has a special banquet invitation from Adela, so he can naturally enter this hall.

Gervais didn't say much, and just continued walking side by side with Lachie.

Then the two people came to the door, and a row of attendants immediately saluted the two people respectfully. At this time, Waddington was actually waiting at the door himself.

When Waddington saw the two people coming, he nodded slightly to them, and then Gervais and Lucky walked through the door unimpeded, because Waddington must have recognized the two of them.

Arriving in the hall, Gervais found that it was much livelier than outside, with hundreds of people in it.

In addition to the humans from the Holy Alliance, some of the orcs who came in earlier were also in another section of the hall. The humans and the orcs occupied two sides of the hall, clearly enjoying their own delicacies.

I don’t know if it was negotiated in advance. The only orcs in this hall are half-orcs, and there are no pig-headed, dog-headed or the like.

This won't kill people's appetite as Lucky said before.

Although half-orcs also have fangs and blue skin, they are still somewhat similar to humans. And the half-orcs who can come here are obviously not ordinary people in the orc royal court, so they are all neatly dressed and no more sloppy than humans.

.

Then Gervais looked towards the high platform again. Adela, the real owner, has not come yet, and she will definitely have to wait until the banquet officially begins.

The orc princess was obviously not present either. Basically, Gervais saw only male half-orcs.

"Harry, you sit here for a while, I'll go find my father and brother, and I'll come back to you later!"

Entering the hall and arriving at a nearby long table, Lucky said hello to Gervais and prepared to leave temporarily.

Lucky's father and brother arrived at the City of Hope this afternoon. Because Lucky himself had the invitation, they did not wait for him and arrived at Leng Jade Manor early.

"Well, you go ahead! I'll sit by myself for a while!"

Gervais nodded, and after saying goodbye to Lucky, he went directly to the long table to get a glass of fruit drink.

After taking a sip of the drink, he felt that it tasted pretty good, at least better than the drinks on the table. Gervais then raised his head and glanced, and found that there was a row of empty seats in front of him, so he walked over.

Then Gervais sat on the chair and began to wander, mainly recalling the first time he met his cheap wife.

At that time, Gervais was just like a loser in the previous life, while Cheap Wife was a goddess. Unexpectedly, in the end, the swan fell by itself and hit him, a toad.

"Cheap wife, you have to wait for me, I want to have a lot of babies with you!"

There is news about Caroline now, but there is no news about Alice, so Gervais is most worried about Alice, for fear that something unexpected will happen to his cheap wife.

"Harry!"

Just when Gervais was wandering alone in the sky, he suddenly heard a call coming from his ears.

Gervais immediately woke up and looked to the side, only to find that the person calling him was the rich little Lolita.

"Miss Lolita, what a coincidence!"

For this little girl, Gervais wanted to laugh in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be friendly.

Speaking of which, before letting Lolita go last time, Gervais really slapped her hard several times, and the sound was loud.

However, with the figure of a rich little girl like Lolita, she probably wouldn't be seriously injured, it would just be a superficial wound at most.

"Why are you sitting here alone? There are many noble ladies over there. It stands to reason that you young people like to chat with noble ladies at banquets, right?"

Lolita is wearing a fiery red strapless dress today. Her slender and smooth white shoulders have a strong impact with the red dress, making this girl look extremely enchanting.

However, what is different from the past is that Lolita changed her usual indifference today, and her tone was soft and half-joking when talking to Gervais.

Lolita's performance immediately made Gervais secretly vigilant. Gervais had already seen a thing or two about this girl's character.

Even though Lolita looks passionate in her voluptuous clothes, she is actually an indifferent person and has a bad temper. If you hate her, you will live forever. Gervais himself is the best representative.

Now Adela is joking with herself for no reason, which is not at all in line with her past style.

Of course, although Gervais was on high alert in his heart, he remained so on the surface.

"Haha, Miss Lolita, although I have now become a student of Alliance College, I am self-aware. If those noble ladies know my identity, they will definitely turn around and leave. Therefore, I might as well sit here and eat and drink in peace.

Well, so as not to disappoint!”

Gervais smiled and said to Lolita.

"Haha, this is not necessarily true. I heard that Harry, you and Miss Adela have a very good relationship. Maybe you can make a difference in the Sky City through Miss Adela in the future."

Lolita smiled sweetly and answered seemingly casually...

After hearing Lolita's answer, Gervais was suddenly enlightened. He finally knew why this little girl changed her indifference and started chatting with him today.

She must be doing it because of the mysterious pharmacist.

It is estimated that Gervais had too much contact with Adela during this period. Although they only borrowed and returned books to each other, it still inevitably aroused suspicion.

And this Lolita happened to be familiar with him, so this girl probably wanted to take the opportunity to test it out.

"I would also like to, but I don't know if there is such an opportunity. After all, there are too many outstanding magicians in the Alliance College of Higher Education!"

"I even had no choice but to give up because I didn't have enough gold coins, even though I had the talent of undead. Fortunately, Adela lent me her books because of the friendship from the last adventure!"

"Oh? There is such a thing. It seems that Miss Adela is really a kind person!"

Lolita looked at Gervais carefully and found that Gervase's expression was natural and his eyes were not evasive, and she thought to herself.
